PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
With the adoption of the new EU Roma Framework, the EU and its member states move towards implementation where expert advice as well as reliable partners on all levels of policy-making and implementation (local, regional, national, European) are needed.
ERIACNET4EU project will offer the expertise, specific know-how and reliable methodologies to support the implementation of the new framework.
ERIACNET4EU project aims at protecting, promoting and raising awareness of rights of Roma citizens of the EU and thereby at strengthening the EU values, in particular of equality, justice and non-discrimination and thus contributing to building a more democratic EU where all citizens can enjoy equal access and protection of their rights. It aims to do so by providing support to ERIAC network members, including civil society organizations active at local, regional and transnational level, to increase their capacities, establish channels of communication and participation with public authorities and EU institutions to ensure their active engagement in policy implementation and design targeting Roma. At the same time, it will result in providing informed, reliable, consolidated and quality input to European and national policy-makers and public institutions, to increase the effective implementation of strategies and laws that affect the lives of Roma in the EU.
ERIACNET4EU serves the following objectives:

In the frame of ERIACNET4EU: ERIAC NETWORK TO ADVANCE ROMA INCLUSION BY COMBATTING AND PREVENTING ANTIGYPSYISM IN THE EU project in 2023, financed by the European Commission, and building on the input and experience – through survey responses, discussions, and written contributions – of the members of the ERIAC Knowledge-Production and Publication thematic section, ERIAC is proud to present the position paper “ADVANCING EDUCATION AND ROMA KNOWLEDGE-PRODUCTION IN EUROPE AND BEYOND: A POSITION PAPER”.
The aim of this position paper is to discuss strategies of advancing Roma culture, history, and education as a tool to challenge stereotypes and foster social and cultural inclusion of Roma communities in Europe. It delves into critical issues related to Roma education, knowledge production, and their broader implications. This paper highlights that while some progress has been made in the realm of Roma education, the educational disparities experienced by Roma students and scholars persist, indicating an urgent need for expansion and scaling up of lessons learned from leaders in Roma education. With a powerful foreword by dr. Ciprian Necula, Chairman of the Board of the Roma Education Fund (REF), the paper presents a comprehensive set of recommendations to foster inclusive education and combat discrimination, calling on a broad set of stakeholders to consider, adopt and implement the proposed recommendations. Key recommendations include, among other, the integration of Romani culture and history into educational curricula and the promotion of Romani scholarship. Bridging educational disparities is not just a moral imperative; it is also an economic necessity for the economic recovery of Europe and beyond. Roma communities make significant contributions to the labour market, paving the way for a more inclusive and prosperous future. By confronting antigypsyism, enhancing educational opportunities, and broadening the representation of Roma culture and history, Europe can work towards a more just, equitable and inclusive future for all.

By amplifying the voices of young Roma and Sinti individuals, the short film underscores Gurême’s lasting impact on their commitment to combat discrimination. This short film will be accompanied by a reflective article to ensure accessibility to a wide European and international audience and serve to attract funds for developing a longer documentary in the future.

The Roma (commonly referred to as “Gypsies” which is an ethnic slur) have been part of the European and national histories and cultural landscapes for over 700 years. Today, the Roma constitute the biggest ethnic minority in Europe with some 10 million citizens in the EU and a global diaspora of over 15 million people. Yet, despite their centuries-old presence, the Roma remain largely unknown to majority societies. As a people, the Roma are mostly thought of and treated as a social problem, perceived through the prism of marginalization, exclusion and poverty. Moreover, the Roma today are the most stigmatized and the least accepted minority group in the EU; diverse manifestations of antigypsyism – the specific form of racism against the Roma people – are a regrettable feature of the daily lives of Roma in Europe. On the other hand, however, the Roma remains a highly resilient and creative population whose diverse contributions to European social, cultural, economic, political, artistic, and even linguistic fields are yet to be acknowledged and embraced.
In the frame of ERIACNET4EU project, ERIAC is offering a training course on Romani culture and history entitled “ROMA(NI) PAST – EUROPE’S FUTURE. WHY EMBRACING EU’S LARGEST ETHNIC MINORITY MATTERS”. This training course will provide a brief overview of Romani history and culture as a point of departure to reflect on the social, political, cultural, economic and environmental importance of positioning Roma at the core of EU’s public debates regarding our societal futures. The training, organized in connection to the Timisoara European Capital of Culture 2023, is specifically tailored for members of staff of public administration and of the European Union Institutions. The course will explore the difficult, sensitive or contentious issues related to Roma and antigypsyism, and help identify and incorporate human rights concerns into the work of public officials. This year, the training will specifically target Romanian public authorities by hosting a specific session dedicated to the history and culture of Roma in Romania. Speakers of other sessions will be invited to incorporate specific examples which illustrate the Romanian context. To enable participation, the training will provide simultaneous Romanian-English translation.
The course will be delivered by a group of experienced Romani scholars, with relevant expertise in the field, including knowledge of the most recent discussions in Romani Studies as well as most recent Roma-related EU and Romanian developments. The training is divided into the following thematic segments:
Language of training: English and Romanian (simultaneous translation will be provided).
Training will be held in a hybrid format, physically at the West University in Timisoara, and online. Participation is open and free of charge.

Prezențial /online
Romii (numiți în mod obișnuit ț*****, ceea ce reprezintă o insultă etnică) fac parte din istoria și peisajul cultural european și național de peste 700 de ani. În prezent, romii constituie cea mai mare minoritate etnică din Europa, cu aproximativ 10 milioane de cetățeni în UE și o diasporă globală de peste 15 milioane de persoane. Cu toate acestea, în ciuda prezenței lor vechi de secole, romii rămân în mare parte necunoscuți de societățile majoritare. Ca popor, romii sunt în general considerați și tratați ca o problemă socială, percepută prin prisma marginalizării, a excluderii și a sărăciei. Mai mult, romii sunt astăzi cel mai stigmatizat și cel mai puțin acceptat grup minoritar din UE; diversele manifestări de antigypsism – forma specifică de rasism împotriva romilor – sunt o caracteristică regretabilă a vieții de zi cu zi a romilor din Europa. Pe de altă parte, romii rămân totuși o populație extrem de rezistentă și creativă, ale cărei contribuții diverse la domeniile sociale, culturale, economice, politice, artistice și chiar lingvistice europene nu au fost încă recunoscute.
În cadrul proiectului ERIACNET4EU, ERIAC oferă un curs de formare privind cultura și istoria romilor, intitulat “TRECUTUL ROMILOR – VIITORUL EUROPEI. DE CE ESTE IMPORTANT SĂ NE APROPIEM DE CEA MAI MARE MINORITATE ETNICĂ DIN UE“. Acest training va oferi o scurtă prezentare generală a istoriei și culturii romilor, ca punct de plecare pentru a reflecta asupra importanței sociale, politice, culturale, economice și de mediu a poziționării romilor în centrul dezbaterilor publice din UE privind viitorul societății noastre. Formarea, organizată în legătură cu Timișoara Capitală Europeană a Culturii 2023, este special concepută pentru membrii personalului din administrația publică și din instituțiile Uniunii Europene. Trainingul va explora aspectele dificile, sensibile sau controversate legate de romi și de antigypsism și va contribui la identificarea și încorporarea preocupărilor legate de drepturile omului în activitatea funcționarilor publici. În acest an, trainingul se va adresa în mod special autorităților publice din România, găzduind o sesiune specifică dedicată istoriei și culturii romilor din România. Vorbitorii celorlalte sesiuni vor fi invitați să includă exemple specifice care să ilustreze contextul românesc. Pentru a încuraja participarea, cursul de formare va oferi traducere simultană română-engleză.
Cursul va fi ținut de un grup de cercetători romi cu experiență, cu o expertiză relevantă în domeniu, inclusiv cunoștințe despre cele mai recente discuții din domeniul studiilor romilor, precum și despre cele mai recente evoluții din UE și din România legate de romi. Cursul este împărțit în următoarele segmente tematice:
Limba de desfășurare a cursului: Engleză și română (se va asigura traducere simultană).
Cursul se va desfășura într-un format hibrid, fizic la Universitatea de Vest din Timișoara și online. Participarea este deschisă și gratuită.
Evenimentul face parte din proiectul ERIACNET4EU – ERIAC Network pentru promovarea incluziunii romilor prin combaterea și prevenirea antigypsism-ului în UE.

Today, millions of Europeans experience multiple discrimination due to intersecting dimensions of identity, including race, ethnicity, sexual identity and orientation, religion, class, nationality and citizen status, among others. Prevalent discrimination – including specific types of racism such as antigypsyism or Afrophobia, as well as islamophobia, homophobia and sexism– push European citizens to the margins of society by seriously impeding their access to equal rights and opportunities.
Roma – the biggest ethnic minority in the EU – are among the most discriminated against groups. Likewise, Europeans of African descent, Jews, Muslims and persons belonging to the LGBTIQ community face widespread discrimination. Each of these populations has been forging civic movements of their own to fight for equality and social justice. In this process, they have employed diverse strategies of resisting oppression, building political power and empowering their communities.
The public debate hosted by ERIAC will provide an opportunity to exchange experiences between different minority groups, pointing to striking similarities between communities and their struggles. Such discussion is both necessary and timely. As the agency of those belonging to minority groups grows, they claim their rightful place at the centre of social, political and economic affairs on national and international levels.
ERIAC provides a platform for Roma and representatives of other minority groups in Europe to reflect together on strategies for building solidarity and closer collaboration across diverse social movements, united around the same values of social justice, inclusivity and respect.
The event is part of the public discussion series „Promoting European Values Through Cultural Heritage” of ERIACNET4EU – ERIAC Network to Advance Roma Inclusion by Combatting and Preventing Antigypsyism in the EU.
